    Snake Plant Black Robusta ‘Forest Star’

    Botanical Name: Sansevieria trifasciata 'Black Robusta'

    Common Name(s): Black Robusta Snake Plant, Forest Star Snake Plant

    The Black Robusta Snake Plant, also called Forest Star, is an elegant and resilient houseplant, distinguished by its deep, dark green foliage with subtle silver-gray markings. With its compact and upright growth, Black Robusta is perfect for adding a sleek, contemporary touch to any space. This hardy plant is incredibly low-maintenance and is ideal for beginner plant owners or those with busy lifestyles. Known for its strong tolerance to varying light levels and infrequent watering needs, Black Robusta is versatile enough to thrive in nearly any indoor environment.

    Black Robusta Snake Plant performs best in bright, indirect light but can adapt to low light or artificial lighting conditions, making it an excellent choice for offices or low-light rooms. It prefers a well-draining, sandy soil mix and should be watered sparingly. Let the soil dry completely between waterings, as this plant is highly susceptible to root rot if overwatered. It tolerates average room temperatures and lower humidity levels, making it ideal for most indoor spaces.

    Air Purifying Qualities:

    • Toxin Removal: Black Robusta Snake Plant is effective at filtering out airborne toxins such as formaldehyde, benzene, and xylene, contributing to cleaner indoor air.
    • Oxygen Production: One of the few plants that release oxygen at night, this Snake Plant is great for bedrooms and other sleeping areas, promoting better air quality even while you rest.
    • Humidity Regulation: Through transpiration, this plant helps slightly increase indoor humidity levels, which is beneficial in drier spaces.

    Note: Black Robusta Snake Plant is mildly toxic to pets (cats and dogs) if ingested, potentially causing symptoms like nausea, vomiting, and drooling. Keep this plant out of reach of pets to ensure their safety.

    Care Insights & Expert Tips

    Sunlight

    Bright, indirect light: Snake Plants prefers bright, indirect light and can tolerate some direct sun, especially in the morning or late afternoon. Place it near a sunny window for optimal growth. Low light conditions are tolerated, but yields slower growth.

    Water

    Water biweekly: Snake plants are very drought-tolerant. Keep the soil evenly moist but not waterlogged. Water when the top 1-2 inches of soil feel dry, typically every 2 weeks in warmer months. In winter, allow the soil to dry out a bit more between waterings.

    Temperature

    Warm temperatures: Snake plants prefer warm temperatures, ideally between 65-75°F (18-24°C) with low-to-moderate humidity.

      1. Fertilize sparingly: Feed your snake plant with a balanced liquid fertilizer diluted to half strength once or twice a year during the spring and or summer.
      2. Repot infrequently: Repot your snake plant only when it becomes root-bound. Use a well-draining cactus or succulent potting mix.
      3. Tolerant of neglect: Snake plants are very forgiving and can tolerate periods of neglect, but generally the more care - they look healthier and more beautiful.
      4. Propagation: Snake plants are easy to propagate through leaf cuttings or stem cuttings. Simply cut a healthy leaf or stem and place it in a pot with well-draining soil. Keep the soil slightly moist and in a warm, bright location.

      FAQs

      Do you have a return or replacement policy for plants?

For these instances, once each item is shipped, you'll receive individual tracking information for each package, so you can easily track their progress.

      We currently ship to the contiguous United States which consists of the 48 U.S. states and the District of Columbia.

      Do you offer same-day or next-day delivery?
